Biggest 15" wheel for the rear?

What size tire can you run and how wide of a rim? The guy will prolly be running weld draglites w/ et's.

Edit: He was wanting to know if it is possible to run a 10" wide rim and what backspacing. Also what size tire.

thanks
Travis

Im running a 15x10 Cragar SS with a P295 50 tire. It sticks out slightly but I think it looks cool and It will rub if you hit a bump and dont have good shocks

well i have a set of weld pro stars (15x10) with a 5.5 backspacing and i run 275/50/15 bfg DRs on the street and another set with hoosier 27x10.5x15 on the strip. No problems with fitment other than a little rubbin at the track when you make a hard turn but other than that NO PROBLEMS

see sig...


i have cragar street stars 15x10 and run a 26x11.5 ET street. im glad i didnt get the 28x11.5 cause i got alittle rubbing on the fender... but then again.. i forgot to check my tires psi and was at 26 psi and not the 16-18 they should have been at, i now have rim/tire screws and have the slicks at 10 psi as far as a street tire, i ran BFG 275/60s before with no problem... i heard there is a 295/50 that doesnt rub, forgot the name of them, but they sell them at pepboys.
